An arm brace is a supportive medical device designed to stabilize and protect the muscles, tendons, and joints of the arm. It helps relieve pain, reduce strain, and support recovery from injuries such as sprains, tendonitis, muscle strains, fractures, or post-surgical conditions. Arm braces provide targeted compression and immobilization, helping to reduce swelling and promote healing while allowing controlled movement as needed.
Typically made from lightweight, breathable materials with adjustable straps or hook-and-loop closures, arm braces are designed for comfort during daily wear. Depending on the condition, they may support the forearm, elbow, upper arm, or the entire limb. Some models also include splints or stays for added rigidity and protection.
